Anyone happen to have a schematic handy for a Mag 986FS / 986N 19" CRT
monitor? (Probably also rebranded by Gateway at one of theirs, although I
know their EV900 is a different animal).

I was given one the other day where the picture seems to shimmer, at
least in part dependent on changes in the screen contents. I can trace
out the schematic for the PSU section and go from there if I have to, but
having a genuine schematic would be a lot nicer to have! :-)

(I've got a 19" CRT on one machine which has a weak tube, so this would
be a nice replacement if I can get it running)

Open it and look for bad caps by the power supply.

That's all I've ever had to replace on a Mag.
